A burglar who hid in a walk-in freezer to avoid police has been jailed for more than 2 years.

Iqbal Miah was eventually found at the Golden Dragon chinese takeaway in Horsham following a break-in. The 38 year old was also jailed for possessing a knife.

Investigator Bethany Turner said: "PCs Alexander Brown and Jozef Dzwonnik weren't satisfied when they found the place empty and did a thorough search including the freezer where they found the suspect hiding.

"They arrested 38-year-old Iqbal Miah, who gave them a chilly reception."

The unemployed man of no fixed address was charged with three counts of burglary and possession of a knife.

He appeared at Lewes Crown Court on Thursday (August 24) and pleaded guilty to all four offences and have been sentenced to 25 months in prison, 16 months concurrent for the burglaries and an additional nine months to run consecutively for the weapon.

It's almost ten years since Ben Vodden took his own life after being repeatedly bullied on the school bus. He was just 11 years old.

He'd told his parents about the bullying - and they'd spoken to his school in Sussex. But it didn't stop. His father has spent the last ten years campaigning to make school buses a safer place for children.

Abigail Bracken's been to Horsham to hear about his hopes for new research that could see all school bus bullies captured on camera.

The MP for Horsham, Jeremy Quin, has been holding a public meeting this morning about rail services in his constituency.

The Conservative politician raised the issue in the House of Commons at Prime Minister's Question Time on 29th June. His constituency is served by Southern trains, the firm at the centre of a row with the RMT union over planned changes to the role of guards. There have been a number of strikes by workers, and on Monday the rail operator is due to introduce an emergency timetable which includes cancelling 341 trains a day.

Ahead of today's meeting, the MP said:

For non-train users I cannot adequately convey the sheer frustration of those that are (and pay so much for the privilege). Southern’s new Emergency Timetable may be a reflection of reality but announcing the cancellation of hundreds of services – services which were advertised when commuters bought their season tickets - will not win “hearts and minds”, nor will the inevitable over-crowding.
